Soon after the capsule collection came out, there were pics of the two primary models (Karlie Kloss (whose name I hope I'm remembering accurately from a magazine article), and the Asian model who's name escapes me this morning), carrying capsule bags, and on the walls around the checkout counter at one of my outlets. My hunch at the time, was that they were getting the most bang for their buck from the ad campaign, and either hoping no one noticed that those bags weren't actually in the store at the time, ....... or, maybe even hoping people would think they *were* in the store, just sold out. Don't know.

Yes I remember seeing the giant poster of Kalie behind the register at the outlet near me. I mentioned something to the SA about why is that there, that's a FP bag? She rolled her eyes and said exactly what you said, they were getting the most bang for their buck and it was really annoying because people were asking for the bag and they don't sell it.

I'd love to know this too. I wonder if there's an app? I only post from mobile devices....

I have a Samsung and I use PicsArt. After I crop and resize, I use the writing feature to put "FF".
I started watermarking my pictures after it was brought to my attention my pics, along with others, were being used to sell bags on Instagram.
Hope it helps and so sad people are that lazy to take their own pics.

Thank you. I need to spend the day going thru my pics and doing this to the ones I post here in the future, I guess. You're right, so many people are very lazy these days, which speaks volumes for our country, I'm afraid. :(

I think that is the XL Soft Borough Suede, color gold/port No.32541 mentioned on the Fall 2014 thread.

Thank you so much! Hadn't seen that post, and was really curious about that bag.

Yeah, I got a similar response to lizmil's when I asked about it - "oh, that...yeah, it's something from full price, don't know why we have that picture" :amuse: I had never noticed them before, so wasn't sure if campaign pics were usually up.

Bloomingdales.com has some B bags on sale, including the medium bar stripe B in black/ white, the mini bar stripe, and the town tote, for 30% off plus extra 25% off with code Summer. A bit better than the semi annual sale at Coach.
